Severin did not expect to see a colossal galaxy monster within the confines of the meteorite belt. It dawned on him that the area he had encroached on belonged to the creature, which had been nestled among the meteorites in slumber until Severin's intrusion disrupted its domain. The 'theft' of all that metal Uru and the violation of its sanctuary was what fueled the creature's ire.
Emerging from the meteorite, the galaxy monster roared, and its cry reverberated through air. Elemental energy swirled around it and distorted the surrounding space.
"Roar!" The creature lunged toward Severin with jaws agape. Without hesitation, Severin conjured the Green Shield over his head. A burst of green light blossomed and enveloped him in a defensive barrier. The monster's bloody teeth collided with the shield, producing a resounding metallic clang.
When the creature noticed that its attack had proven futile, its eyes glowed in anger, and it roared anew before lunging for Severin once more. Its scales glowed in a silver light that converging into a millstone-sized beam within its bloody mouth.
The Green Shield was able to block off the assault, but it exhibited some signs of wear. Despite successfully blocking the attack, Severin observed that a crack in the shield as its luster began to dim. The Green Shield, acquired at the cost of several batches of seventh-grade Breakthrough Pills from Oskar, was cracking under the pressure. He still owed the sect another three batches of Breakthrough Pills.
Fury surged within Severin as he roared. "You're going to pay for damaging my shield!"
"I can't keep doing this. Its physical form is just too strong!" Severin decided to change tactics after realizing that close-range combat was not going to work. He executed a technique that allowed him to distance himself from the monster, and he immediately took out his most prized spiritual treasure—the Sky-Soil Zenith.
As it expanded in mid-air, the Sky-Soil Zenith grew to the size of a mountain and exuded a formidable aura. The pressure bore down upon the galaxy monster, and despite its steel-like physical form, the scales on its body began to crack at last.
